Background

Solana VM

SolanaVM focuses specifically on bridging the gap between Ethereum, the current leader in DeFi, and Solana, a high-speed blockchain network. The total Value Locked on EVM is currently over 68,000,000,000, now imagine them being available on Solana.

SolanaVM acts as a bridge, allowing developers to seamlessly move their existing Ethereum applications to Solana. This unlocks the immense potential of Solana's architecture, which boasts:

  • Speed: Solana can handle thousands of transactions per second, compared to Ethereum's current limit, which allows instant transactions for DeFi users.
  • Significantly Lower Fees: Solana's efficient design keeps transaction fees to a minimum, making DeFi applications more affordable for everyone.

SolanaVM isn't just about speed and cost savings. It's a win-win situation for both developers and users:

  • Effortless Migration: Developers can migrate their Ethereum applications to Solana with minimal code changes, thanks to SolanaVM's compatibility features.
  • Familiar interface: Users can continue using the tools and interfaces they're already comfortable with while enjoying the benefits of Solana's high-speed network.
  • A More Inclusive DeFi Ecosystem: By removing the barriers of slow speeds and high fees, SolanaVM opens the door for wider adoption and innovation within DeFi.
